Volunteer: Day of Caring – Help a Hampton Older Adult with Their Yard - Project #3

Want to make a difference for someone in our community? A local older adult in Hampton could use a hand with some yardwork—and they’d be so grateful for your help! They’d love to have flower beds weeded, a few new plants added, and fresh mulch put down. They also needs their lawn mowed and a few overgrown bushes trimmed. It’s a great way to spend some time outside and brighten someone’s day in a big way.
